I'm curious what it is you found worse about the remaster.
The only thing I've noticed is in MGS3 intro video. The sound isn't synced to the music anymore, which is the point of the Bond style. It drives me up the wall!
You better appreciate this list because I had to sit down and think, and I hate thinking!
- Gameplay is cropped rather than expanded horizontally, meaning the image will always be zoomed in.
- Graphics take on a "cooler" hue, colors do not match the original.
- Cutscenes are faster (although some would prefer this).
- Sound effects are different (such as the Scope and Nikita).
- Certain dialog are re-recorded and sound jarring.
- 5.1 mix is poor, with cutscene dialog coming from all 5 speakers with no dynamic range.
- Rain in tanker is toned down.
- 1st person camera effects are disproportionate and distorted (such as water streaks on the camera).
- Effects are mostly toned down or inaccurate (such as the mist when entering the ranker).
- Most, if not all visual effects are toned down in HD in some degree.
- Last name, DOB and blood type info are removed from the game.
- At least one typo in cutscenes.
- 2D art is stretched or blurred (such as the sexy posters).
- CODEC loads much slower than the original.
- CODEC volume is much lower than cutscene dialog volume.
- Water effects are incorrect or glitchy (most apparent in Strut D).
- Minor graphical glitches such as visible clipping when using the Coolant Spray.
It's obvious that NONE of these are game breaking so it shouldn't discourage you from enjoying the HD collection unless you want the PS2 version accurately translated to HD, so don't let these bother you.
we can only assume given his dumb social media accounts.
